Protecting your privacy is the whole point of Keepsafe. Unless you ask us to, we don't look at your photos, videos, passwords or anything else on your device.
We collect data in order to understand you better, keep our app running and improve your experience. If we share your personal data with partners and affiliates, they can use it only for those purposes.
We are careful to show you ads only from trusted companies, and we keep your identity anonymous when talking with them. These ads are not displayed for Premium customers, and help support our free version of Keepsafe.
We view or share your personal data only if we're required by law, or if we have concerns about potential violations to our Terms of Service or Privacy Policy. Otherwise, see principle #1.
Keepsafe Software Inc. ("Keepsafe") is committed to protecting your privacy. We have prepared this Privacy Policy to describe to you our practices regarding the Personal Data (as defined below) we collect from users of our site, located at www.getkeepsafe.com ("Site") and mobile application ("App") and our Service (as defined in the Terms of Service). Capitalized terms not defined in this Privacy Policy have the meanings given in our Terms of Service.
By submitting Personal Data through our Site, App, or Service, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and you expressly consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your Personal Data in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We do not intentionally gather Personal Data from visitors who are under the age of 13.
Your Personal Data may be transferred to and processed in the United States. With respect to our collection and processing of Personal Data about individuals in the European Union, we comply with the United States/European Union Safe Harbor Framework as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce (“Safe Harbor”) and have certified our adherence to the U.S./EU Safe Harbor Privacy Principles (the “Safe Harbor Principles). For more information regarding Safe Harbor, please visit the United States Department of Commerce Safe Harbor website at http://www.export.gov/safeharbor.
"Personal Data" means data that allows someone to identify or contact you, including, for example, your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, as well as any other non-public information about you that is associated with or linked to any of the foregoing data. “Anonymous Data” means data that is not associated with or linked to your Personal Data; Anonymous Data does not, by itself, permit the identification of individual persons. We collect Personal Data and Anonymous Data, as described below.
If you decide to invite a third party to create an Account, we will collect your and the third party’s names and e-mail addresses in order to send an e-mail and follow up with the third party. You or the third party may contact us at support@getkeepsafe.com to request the removal of this information from our database.
If you log on to the Service with your login credentials from a social networking site (e.g., Facebook or Twitter), we may receive Personal and/or Anonymous Data about you from such social networking site, in accordance with the terms of use and privacy policy of the third party provider of such social networking site. For example, Facebook may share your friend list with us, in order to help us establish your Account and find other Service users that you know. We may add this information to the information we have already collected from you via the Service.
In general, Personal Data you submit to us is used either to respond to requests that you make, or to aid us in serving you better. We will only use Personal Data in ways that are compatible with the purposes for which it was collected or as subsequently authorized by you. We use your Personal Data in the following ways:
If you are using the Keepsafe Virtual Private Network (VPN) Service (the “VPN Service”), we route all of your Internet traffic through a network provided by Keepsafe and its service providers (the “Keepsafe Network”). If you use our VPN Service, we (i) use your IP address to establish and maintain an encrypted tunnel between your browser or device and the Keepsafe Network and (ii) use your IP address and the IP addresses of websites, services, and applications you view or use to perform automated rules-based traffic management for the purposes of maintaining and improving the VPN Service. The Keepsafe Network is a “no log” network, which means that Keepsafe does not store your IP address when you are using our VPN Service or any information, including IP addresses, about the applications, services or websites you view or use while connected to our VPN Service.
We may create Anonymous Data records from Personal Data by excluding information (such as your name) that make the data personally identifiable to you. When you use our VPN Service, we may also collect Anonymous Data regarding your aggregate bandwidth usage. We use Anonymous Data to analyze request and usage patterns so that we may improve our Service and for billing, network operations, and support purposes. We reserve the right to use Anonymous Data for any purpose and disclose Anonymous Data to third parties in our sole discretion.
We disclose your Personal Data as described below and as described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy.
We may share your Personal Data with third party service providers to: provide you with the Service that we offer you through our Site or App; to conduct quality assurance testing; to facilitate creation of accounts; to provide technical support; and/or to provide us with other services. These third party service providers are required not to use your Personal Data other than to provide the services we request. We require our third party service providers that have access to any Personal Data that you provide from the European Economic Area to provide at least the same level of privacy protection as is required by the applicable Safe Harbor Principles. Where we have knowledge that a service provider is using or disclosing Personal Data in a manner contrary to this Privacy Policy, we will take reasonable steps to prevent or stop the use or disclosure of such Personal Data.
We may share some or all of your Personal Data with our parent company, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or other companies under a common control (“Affiliates”), in which case we will require our Affiliates to honor this Privacy Policy. If another company acquires our company, business, or our assets, that company will possess the Personal Data collected by us and will assume the rights and obligations regarding your Personal Data as described in this Privacy Policy. In the event of an insolvency, bankruptcy or receivership, your Personal Data may also be transferred on a standalone basis.
Regardless of any choices you make regarding your Personal Data (as described below), we may disclose Personal Data if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary (a) in connection with any legal investigation; (b) to comply with relevant laws or to respond to subpoenas or warrants served on Keepsafe; (c) to protect or defend the rights or property of Keepsafe or users of the Service; and/or (d) to investigate or assist in preventing any violation or potential violation of the law, this Privacy Policy, or Terms of Service.
We may work with analytics companies to help us understand how our Site, our Service and our App are being used, such as the frequency and duration of usage. We may also use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our Site or App. These companies may use some of the information collected by the Site or the App, including the unique identification ID of your mobile device. To protect the anonymity of this information, we limit data sharing to ensure these companies can’t identify you personally based on the information we provide. These companies may also obtain information about other applications you have downloaded to your mobile device, the mobile websites you visit, your non-precise location information (e.g., you zip code) and other non-precise location information in order to help analyze and service anonymous targeted advertising on the Site and App and elsewhere.
Some of the analytics companies and third party advertising companies used on this Site may place "tracking cookies" on your computer. If you would like more information about this practice or to opt-out of having this information used by third-party ad servers that are part of the Network Advertising Initiative ("NAI") or the Interactive Advertising Bureau ("IAB"), please visit: NAI: http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp IAB: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/opt-out
When you click on a link to any other website or location, you will leave our Site and go to another site and another entity may collect Personal Data or Anonymous Data from you. We have no control over, do not review, and cannot be responsible for, these outside websites or their content. Please be aware that the terms of this Privacy Policy do not apply to these outside websites or content, or to any collection of data after you click on links to such outside websites.
We offer you choices regarding the collection, use, and sharing of your Personal Data.
You may change any of your Personal Data in your Account by editing your profile within your Account. You may request deletion of your Personal Data by us, but please note that we may be required to keep this information and not delete it (or to keep this information for a certain time, in which case we will comply with your deletion request only after we have fulfilled such requirements). When we delete any information, it will be deleted from the active database, but may remain in our archives. We may retain your information for fraud or similar purposes.
We are committed to protecting the security of your Personal Data. We use a variety of industry-standard security technologies and procedures to help protect your Personal Data from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. We also require you to enter a password to access your Account information. Please do not disclose your Account password to unauthorized people. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, while we use reasonable efforts to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
We conduct periodic self-assessments to verify that we comply with the Safe Harbor Principles, that the attestations and assertions we make about our privacy practices are true, and that such privacy practices have been implemented as presented in this Privacy Policy. We will take reasonable steps to remedy any non-compliance with the Safe Harbor Principles found as a result of any self-assessment.
If you have any complaints regarding our adherence to this Privacy Policy or our compliance with the Safe Harbor program, please first contact us by e-mail at privacypolicy@getkeepsafe.com. We will investigate and attempt to resolve any such complaints in accordance with the principles contained in this Privacy Policy.

Unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing, the arbitration will be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and, if the arbitrator deems them applicable, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes.

We will also update the "Last Updated" date at the top of the Terms. If we make any material changes, and you have registered to use the Service, we will also send an e-mail to you at the last e-mail address you provided to us pursuant to the Terms.

You can use the Service to intercept messages, move files from one storage location on your device to a restricted storage location, and create backup copies of your data. The Service further includes a virtual private network service (the “VPN Service”) which provides private and secure data transmission. Finally, the Service offers telephony and text messaging services, including the ability to send and receive text messages, create separate phone lines, and voicemail (the “Telephony Service”).
Keepsafe and its licensors own all rights, title, and interest in the Application, the Software, the Website, the Service, and the information and content available on or through the foregoing (collectively, the “Keepsafe Properties”). The Keepsafe Properties are protected by copyright laws throughout the world. Subject to the Terms, Keepsafe grants you a limited license to reproduce portions of the Keepsafe Properties for the sole purpose of using the Keepsafe Properties for your personal, non-commercial purposes.

Some Software may be offered under an open source license that we will make available to you. There may be provisions in the open source license that expressly override some of the Terms.
VPN Service. The VPN Service has sufficient capacity to accommodate average non-commercial use. However, from time to time during periods of extraordinarily heavy usage of the VPN Service, you may temporarily experience slower service or service unavailability. No such temporary slowdown or unavailability shall constitute a breach or default by Keepsafe of its obligations. Keepsafe reserves the right to temporarily suspend or limit your use of the VPN Service if: (a) your usage level exceeds our average customer use level or otherwise negatively impacts the overall health of the network determined by Keepsafe in its sole and absolute discretion, or (b) you exceed any bandwidth limitations associated with your account. No such suspension or limitation of the VPN Service shall constitute a breach or default by Keepsafe of its obligations.
You understand that the Keepsafe Properties are evolving. As a result, Keepsafe may require you to accept updates to the Application or the Software that you have installed on your computer or mobile device. You acknowledge and agree that Keepsafe may update the Keepsafe Properties with or without notifying you. Any updates to the Keepsafe Properties are subject to these Terms.

(b) Restrictions.

This means that you, and not Keepsafe, are entirely responsible for all Content that you upload, post, e-mail, transmit or otherwise make available (“Make Available”) through Keepsafe Properties (“Your Content”).
As a condition of use, you agree not to use the Keepsafe Properties for any purpose that is prohibited by the Terms or by applicable law. You shall not (and shall not permit any third party) either (a) to take any action or (b) Make Available any Content on or through the Website and the Service that: (i) infringes or violates any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, contractual right, right of publicity or other right of any person or entity; (ii) violates any acceptable use or other information technology policy that may apply to your use of any computer system or network; (iii) is unlawful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, libelous, deceptive, fraudulent, invasive of another’s privacy, tortious, obscene, offensive, or profane; (iv) constitutes unauthorized or unsolicited advertising, junk or bulk e-mail; (v) involves commercial activities and/or sales without Keepsafe’s prior written consent, such as contests, sweepstakes, barter, advertising, or pyramid schemes; (vi) impersonates any person or entity, including any employee or representative of Keepsafe; or (vii) is inappropriate in any other manner that Keepsafe determines in its sole, reasonable discretion.

You agree to pay all fees or charges to your Account in accordance with the fees, charges, and billing terms in effect at the time a fee or charge is due and payable. Keepsafe collects payments through a limited number of payment services (“Payment Provider”). You must provide Keepsafe with valid account information for the respective chosen Payment Provider. Your Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the designated credit card or other payment method, and you must refer to that agreement and not the Terms to determine your rights and liabilities. By providing Keepsafe with your payment information, you agree that Keepsafe is authorized to immediately invoice your Account for all fees and charges due and payable to Keepsafe hereunder and that no additional notice or consent is required. You agree to immediately notify Keepsafe of any change in payment credentials for payment hereunder. Keepsafe reserves the right at any time to change its prices and billing methods, either immediately upon posting on the Website or by e-mail delivery to you.
You will be responsible for payment of the applicable fee for any Services (each, a “Service Subscription Fee”) at the time you create your Account and select the term of your subscription (each, a “Service Commencement Dat”). Except as set forth in the Terms, all fees for the Services are non-refundable. No contract will exist between you and Keepsafe for the Services until Keepsafe or the Payment Provider, for example Apple or Google, accepts your order by a confirmatory e-mail, SMS/MMS message, or other appropriate means of communication.
Keepsafe’s fees are net of any applicable Sales Tax. If any Service, or payments for any Service, are subject to Sales Tax in any jurisdiction and you have not remitted the applicable Sales Tax to Keepsafe, you will be responsible for the payment of such Sales Tax and any related penalties or interest to the relevant tax authority and you will indemnify Keepsafe for any liability or expense we may incur in connection with such Sales Taxes. Upon our request, you will provide us with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or such other evidence that you have paid all applicable taxes. For purposes of this section, “Sales Tax” shall mean any sales or use tax, and any other tax measured by sales proceeds, that Keepsafe its permitted to pass to its customers that is the functional equivalent of a sales tax where the applicable taxing jurisdiction does not otherwise impose a sales or use tax.
Your subscription will continue indefinitely until terminated in accordance with the Terms. After your initial subscription period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, your subscription will automatically commence on the first day following the end of such period (each a “Renewal Commencement Date”) and continue for an additional equivalent period, at Keepsafe’s then-current price for such subscription. You agree that your Account will be subject to this automatic renewal feature unless you cancel your subscription at least 24 hours prior to the Renewal Commencement Date by logging into and going to the "Manage App Subscriptions” page in the Apple App Store or the “My Apps” page in the Google Play Store app. The same page will permit you to change your Account settings if you do not wish your subscription to renew automatically, or if you want to change or terminate your subscription. If you cancel your subscription, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current subscription term; your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires. However, you will not be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then- current subscription period. By subscribing, you authorize Keepsafe to charge your Payment Provider now, and again at the beginning of any subsequent subscription period. Upon renewal of your subscription, if Keepsafe does not receive payment from your Payment Provider, (i) you agree to pay all amounts due on your Account upon demand, and/or (ii) you agree that Keepsafe may either terminate or suspend your subscription and continue to attempt to charge your Payment Provider until payment is received (upon receipt of payment, your Account will be re-activated and for purposes of automatic renewal, your new subscription commitment period will begin as of the day payment was received).
Users of the Telephony Service may be able to purchase calling minutes and text messaging packages (collectively, “Pre-Purchased Packages"). Pre-Purchased Packages are not legal tender and cannot be reloaded, resold, transferred for value, redeemed for cash or applied to any other account, except to the extent described herein or as required by applicable law. Keepsafe prohibits and does not recognize any purported transfers of Pre-Purchased Packages outside of the Telephony Services, or the purported sale, lease, gift or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates outside of the Telephony Services. Accordingly, you may not trade, sell or attempt to sell Pre-Purchased Packages for “real” money, or exchange those items or currency for value of any kind outside the Telephony Services. Any such transfer or attempted transfer is prohibited and void, and will subject your Account to termination. You shall ensure that you have sufficient Pre-Purchased Packages in your Account before you initiate any transaction that requires such credits. If you have insufficient Telephony Credits in your Account to complete the transaction, the transaction will be cancelled. ALL TRANSACTIONS MADE USING Pre-Purchased Packages ARE FINAL AND ARE NON-REFUNDABLE.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL KEEPSAFE BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR MORE THAN THE AMOUNT RECEIVED BY KEEPSAFE AS A RESULT OF YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE DURING THE TWELVE-MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE DATE ON WHICH YOU FIRST ASSERT YOU CLAIM. IF YOU HAVE NOT PAID KEEPSAFE ANY AMOUNTS DURING SUCH PERIOD, KEEPSAFE’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO FIFTY DOLLARS ($50.00).
THE TELEPHONY SERVICES ARE NOT INTENDED TO SUPPORT OR CARRY EMERGENCY CALLS OR SMS MESSAGES TO ANY EMERGENCY SERVICES. NEITHER KEEPSAFE NOR ITS SUPPLIERS WILL BE LIABLE UNDER ANY LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGE OR LOSS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE INABILITY TO USE THE TELEPHONY SERVICES TO CONTACT EMERGENCY SERVICES.
